What is ManageEngine RecoveryManager Plus?

RecoveryManager Plus keeps widening its backup coverage across the Microsoft identity estate.

RecoveryManager Plus is a backup-and-recovery tool for Active Directory and Microsoft 365, and it is the most feature-active of the ManageEngine set here. Recent builds add real backup coverage — AD sites and subnets, Entra ID local admin passwords, S3-compatible repositories, SIEM audit forwarding, and Entra ID BitLocker recovery keys — alongside CVE patches and RemCom agent hardening. Build 6322 is the quietest of the run: a single fix for restarts triggered by an outdated ExchangeOnlineManagement PowerShell module during Microsoft 365 enumeration.

What is NocoDB?

NocoDB lets MCP clients connect by signing in and adds workflow run playback in 2026.10.0.

NocoDB ships a monthly release. In September MCP moved from the Claude connector directory to an account-wide agent surface. 2026.10.0 lets Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor and other MCP clients connect by signing in, with no token to copy and no more access than the user's own role. It also adds step-through playback and pause/resume/retry for workflow runs, button-triggered automations, workload views in Timeline, and renames Interfaces to classic apps under a new Apps menu.

ManageEngine RecoveryManager Plus vs NocoDB: editorial side-by-side

M2.5

RecoveryManager Plus keeps widening its backup coverage across the Microsoft identity estate.

◆ Current state

RecoveryManager Plus is a backup-and-recovery tool for Active Directory and Microsoft 365, and it is the most feature-active of the ManageEngine set here. Recent builds add real backup coverage — AD sites and subnets, Entra ID local admin passwords, S3-compatible repositories, SIEM audit forwarding, and Entra ID BitLocker recovery keys — alongside CVE patches and RemCom agent hardening. Build 6322 is the quietest of the run: a single fix for restarts triggered by an outdated ExchangeOnlineManagement PowerShell module during Microsoft 365 enumeration.

◆ Where it's heading

The direction is coverage expansion: methodically extending what can be backed up and restored across on-prem AD and Entra ID, while broadening cloud storage targets and operational integrations. The dependence on Microsoft's own PowerShell modules is the cost of that coverage, and 6322 shows where it bites — a stale module on the customer's side takes the product down mid-enumeration. Feature builds and pure-fix builds alternate at roughly a two-month cadence, so a single-issue build reads as a gap between feature cycles rather than a slowdown.

◆ Prediction

Expect continued expansion of Entra ID and cloud-native backup coverage and more storage-target options, with security patches folded into each build; the next build carrying a Features section is due on the cadence this feed has held.

ANALYTICS
6.3

NocoDB lets MCP clients connect by signing in and adds workflow run playback in 2026.10.0.

◆ Current state

NocoDB ships a monthly release. In September MCP moved from the Claude connector directory to an account-wide agent surface. 2026.10.0 lets Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor and other MCP clients connect by signing in, with no token to copy and no more access than the user's own role. It also adds step-through playback and pause/resume/retry for workflow runs, button-triggered automations, workload views in Timeline, and renames Interfaces to classic apps under a new Apps menu.

◆ Where it's heading

Agent access is now the product's spine: three releases in a row have widened what MCP clients can reach and how easily they connect, while workflows gain the observability expected of an automation tool. Renaming Interfaces to classic apps, plus a prompt box on the new project page when NocoAI is on, suggests a newer app layer is coming that the release doesn't describe yet.

◆ Prediction

Expect the non-classic Apps builder, likely prompt-driven via NocoAI, to be introduced in a coming release. The entries don't show its scope or plan tiering.
